High-quality heart care, close to home

REX Cardiac Surgical Specialists offer the highest quality care from diagnosis, through surgery and on to recovery.

With comprehensive resources available through UNC REX Healthcare, a part of UNC Health Care, patients and referring physicians can depend on expertise, innovation and compassionate care.

Dr. Curtis Anderson, Dr. Alan Kypson, Dr. Lance Landvater and Dr. Asad Shah are members of the UNC REX Heart Valve Center, a multi-disciplinary team of physicians who specialize in the treatment of patients with valve disease. They are nationally recognized for their expertise in minimally-invasive valve repair and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures.

Patient Story: Jonathan Barnes

Jonathan was a healthy, active 68-year-old who exercised and lifted weights often- including the day he had a heart attack. Diagnosed with congestive heart failure, Jonathan thought his outlook looked grim, until Dr. Anderson from REX Cardiac Surgical Specialists repaired his damaged valve.
